Re: Spidertron building

there is an option to make it so that robots only dispatch when moving in the grid section. you may have this disabled.

Re: Free service to run your server: Factorio Zone

Hi! First of all thanks for the amazing tool it’s really useful! I have a question. Is there a way to make the save game I’m using be experimental so that I can play with the new train mechanics when they come out? Or will I have to wait for the full release for the server to be able to support it?...

Re: Belt-based 2700SPM Megabase

Ah cool maybe spicespider will help me soon enough. I double checked the photo and realized your doing 4 inserters per blue belt instead of 6 which is really smart I may say. It also accounts for the offset.

Re: Belt-based 2700SPM Megabase

That’s the same design I use! However why offset the belts? Is it more efficient? And yes it is a big goal originally I was gonna do a no beacon build but only do 10k. That was a no when I realized how big it would be. But I still wanted a challenge. So 20k it is! Quick question. How do you go about...

Re: Belt-based 2700SPM Megabase

Lol. The only thing I have is like my train network to irons. I’m aiming for a 20k spm for my current world but I’ve never even done above 100 spm. Or launched a rocket. May aswell aim big.

Re: [1.0.0] Darkness is no longer dark

You can mess with the picture settings. I saw a dude use this to make it pitch black everywhere there wasn’t lights but you can probably tinker with it to just get darker nights.

Re: Advanced circuit network conditions for train behavior in 1.1

Yeah my ideas got quotes complex before I just said”screw it he need a if/else function I’ll give him a if else function.” Of course my experience with combinators is limited so there is probably another far easier way to do it but this accomplished what was asked. See above post... man I need some...

Re: Advanced circuit network conditions for train behavior in 1.1

I will give this a shot on my lunch break and report my results. Thanks for the input. I had considered something similar to this design, but scrapped the idea because I wanted a magic one-combinator solution, or using the "each" parameter to make it scaleable without adding complexity. B...

Re: Advanced circuit network conditions for train behavior in 1.1

Hi also haven’t done much coding but I think what your looking for is a if/else setup. I’m gonna switch your wagons to numbers because I want the letters for somethings else. Ok here we go. My idea is to used 3 if/else statements to compare and find the lowest chest set. Well call your chest sets 1-...

Re: Trains left turn question

Ah thanks everyone! So I guess I need more of a stress tester trains setup... anyhow I’ll definitely be playing with this in mind more so that after I ignore and then wonder why my fuel train isn’t going as fast I’ll know the problem :)

Re: Trains left turn question

Proper signaling is the key to efficient train routing. Many players (especially new ones) struggle with train signals and create deadlocks. This can be especially problematic for longer trains as their sheer size is difficult to account for when crossing tracks. The best thing you can do is learn ...

Trains left turn question

I’ve been getting into trains recently and am constantly seeing mentions of left turns being the devil in the megabase. Why? What’s so bad about left turns? And if there is a problem how can I fix it?
